Vitiligo is no disease. It’s merely a skin condition that causes an individual’s skin to lose its natural colour. However, when developed, it tends to affect a person’s self-esteem. But it shouldn’t. In fact, you should not let anyone or anything bring you down.
Therefore, these celebrities are using their star power to do everything they can do to normalize vitiligo and everything it brings with it. Watch these women rock vitiligo like it’s nobody’s business and extract all the inspiration and motivation you need to be able to feel the same way.
